What are you trying to lock against during probe? Andrew

What are you trying to lock > against during probe? The idea is to reduce the amount of unnecessary lock/unlock cycles (1 vs 3). Of course, we could just omit locking entirely here, but that seemed a bit wild to me, and even if it would work in that specific case, it just serve as a bad example.

I would just comment the requirement that it can only be used during probe, and remove all the locks. Andrew

As we cannot rely on phy_read_paged function before the PHY is identified, the paged read in rtlgen_supports_2_5gbps needs to be open coded as it is being called by the match_phy_device function, ie. before .read_page and .write_page have been populated. Make sure it is also protected by the MDIO bus mutex and use rtl821x_write_page instead of 3 individually locked MDIO bus operations.
